It seems to me everyone is complaining about not having sweet loot when they are level 20-30. I didn't have shit back when I played lived, except a few items people gave me. Everyone is complaining that people who have high end items are greedy, when in reality they have been playing this for years and earned what they have. Everyone wanting resets or bitching about items prices seem to be the greedy ones. You all want something for near nothing.

This is insurmountably stupid. Because of that, no amount of discussion is going to force this to happen.

The problem for new people is the amount of twinks present on this server. They group with people who have 100k+ worth of gear, meanwhile they are wearing banded and swinging a green jade broadsword.

But, this is what happens when you show up late in the game.

This post is purely about currency inflation, please keep talk of items or twinking to a minimum.

Man, I like that word. I think it was concocted for this very thread on this very subject.

Maybe you're missing the fact that high end items costing a lot means when you win a roll on that nice item, you sell it for a lot. So yeah, the server has been around for quite some time and there is certainly far more plat on the server than there was at this point in Live. The thing is though... it doesn't matter. It's all relative. As the value of items goes up, player's average incomes go up. You can make far more plat on here with your time than you could at this point in time on live. It still seems that the low-end gear is appropriately priced and sure, 100pp isn't going to matter to those with much more wealth. It will matter to those who needs a suit of bronze. It's the law of diminishing marginal utility and you can't stop that train!!

Fine. Destroy all the plat today. I'm sure all of us dudes with fungis sitting around collecting dust will be happy to sell them to you for 500pp a week from now.

OP, unless you have millions of plat then your idea is extremely self serving. People who haven't spent their times wisely earning plat all stand to gain and it invalidates people who spent hours working for their moneyz.

Now as long as you admit that, fine. What do you say to the person who just spent weeks, hours a day, building up 100k then there's a money wipe next week?
